Navigation strip

[amavel_bel]

Grrrrrr, I hate that LJ navigation strip. Livejournal put that hateful thing on both my livejournal accounts (this paid one and the free account I have to test layouts) without asking me and I had to disable it again. Plus, I have been seeing it in a lot of journals now and some of them have the personalized layout messed up because of it (usually the accounts using S1 Generator). What the hell?

If you also haaaaaaaaaaate the navigation strip, you can disable it again. Just go to the livejournal main page, log in and click in the Manage option in the menu. Then, under the Settings & Preferences section, click in the Viewing Options link, scroll down the page a bit and uncheck the options:

Navigation strip display options:
- Always see the navigation strip when you view any journal or community
- Always show the navigation strip to anyone who views your journal or community


And I really hope Livejournal stop making things to our accounts arbitrarily *sighs*.

Thank you! I was just wondering how to get rid of the infernal thing. Only the problem is, I go to the Live Journal main page and I go to Manage at the top, but there is no viewing options.

Am I doing something wrong?

[slave-o-spike.livejournal.com]

Found it! Thanks - all taken care of now.

THank you for the link - it's been driving me mad when I visit other people's journals - it's irritating!

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. I can't believe livejournal keeps doing things like that, grrrrrr. They must think everybody loves that navigation strip *rolls eyes*.

[babyelefant.livejournal.com]

I didn't even notice that they had it turned on for my journal...I'm running a userscript in my browser that hides it everywhere, so I only saw that it had been turned on when I wanted to fix something in my userinfo settings

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

I don't understand why LJ wants everybody using that navigation strip. It's too ugly, aaaaargh. Everytime I create an account to make a layout preview, it's turned on by default.

[rua1412.livejournal.com]

I soooo hate it too!
I just found out yesterday how disable it changing my layout, but thank you to share the news.

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

It's so annoying, isn't it? I hate when someone forces me to use things I don't want, grrrrrr.

[rua1412.livejournal.com]

Exactly! What terrible attitude. They shouldn't chose for me!

[winchesterxgirl.livejournal.com]

THEY DID IT TO MINE TODAY TOO !!!!!! AAAARRRGGGHHH

thank's for the heads up on how to fix it though hon :)

glad it's not just me that hates it ....

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

Oh, I hate that thing with all my heart, hehehehe. Don't know why LJ insists in turning the navigation strip on. It doesn't go with pretty layouts, grrrrr.

[bendy1.livejournal.com]

Thank you - I had managed to turn mine off and now it is back for some reason. LJ confuses me terribly :)

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

You're welcome!!!

LJ sometimes made me mad. Don't know what the hell they are thinking *sighs*.

[shinodabear.livejournal.com]

Ugh. I saw that thing last night and couldn't get rid of it 'cause my internet decided to go wonky (again.) I've just killed it. I sure hope that thing stays away for a loooong time (talk about annoying!) Do you think garlic and crosses would work? :P

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

I would like to find a way to keep my account safe from LJ sudden changes, hehehe. Maybe I could give garlic and crosses a try ;-).

[zooz.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU !! it was driving me nuts !!

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, darling. Hope LJ stops making this kind of thing.

eu tb detestei, mas nao detestei... sabe? euheuehuehueh é que por um lado é mais facil acessar umas coisas, por outro, ficou beeem em cima do titulo do meu livejournal... heuehuehueuh eu tb vou desabilidar!

beijao queridona!

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

Eu não uso a tal barra de navegação, pois eu tô logada permanentemente. Além disso, destoa dos layouts pois fica parecendo aquelas barras de propaganda, hehe.

Mas o que me deixou p* da vida foi que o povo do LJ habilitou o troço sendo que eu tinha marcado que não queria. Tipo, tudo bem que tem gente que curte, mas não fiquem forçando quem não quer usar, né?

Lousy Navigation Strip

[ankhorite.livejournal.com]

I've unchecked the display options and the blasted thing still shows up on some pages.

And they still have nothing in their FAQ about how to get rid of it entirely.

GRRR! Why, why, why have they saddled us with this visual clutter?

Re: Lousy Navigation Strip

[amavel-bel.livejournal.com]

I noticed that we see that nav strip in the journals where the user let it enabled. Oh hell, guess we can't ride of it completely *sighs*.

Re: Lousy Navigation Strip

[ankhorite.livejournal.com]

Ah! Thanks for the explanation. *sigh*
